Im currently running a 670GTX with twin frozr which works like a charm and is quiet as hell..
people say i should SLI my 670 but in terms of heat and noise thats not a option for me i want a awesome single GPU. so i am curious what u guys think i should buy of those listed bellow


Nvidia GeForce GTX 780 Ti

or

ASUS geforce GTX TITAN BLACK 6GB Physx

If i were you i would stay with the 670 until the 800 series comes up, Who knows what's going to happen then ?
Maybe GTX 880 will cost the same as 780 or 780 Ti with ~15% better performance ? maybe the prices will go down ?

If you don't want to wait then 780 Ti will give you better performance in a Single 1080p monitor
But if you are going for multi monitor or a single monitor 1440p or above then go for the TITAN because it has 6GB of VRAM while the 780 Ti has only 3GB of VRAM which isn't enough for 1440p or above and also not enough for multi monitor setup..

So..
Single 1080p Monitor > GTX 780 Ti
Single 1440p or above monitor or multi monitor setup > GTX TITAN

Good Luck.
I think ya gonna have to wait for the 880 or whatever....at least for a single GPU card if ya looking for that "wow" thing.

I don’t recommend upgrading your graphics card unless the replacement card is at least three tiers higher. Otherwise, the upgrade is somewhat parallel, and you may not even notice any worthwhile difference in performance.

Looking at the heirarchy, 3 tiers up puts you right at the borderline where you are going to notice a significant difference.

As you can see here .... the 670 is about 68% of the speed of the 780 Ti .... or switching that around, the 780 Ti is about 47% faster (1.0 / 0.68) than the 670.

Two 670's is about 61% faster than the one 670 ..... (1.0 / 0.62)
http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/NVIDIA/GeForce_GTX_670_SLI/24.html

So the twin 670s is about 10% faster than the 780 Ti

Noise on the MSI 670's is about 37 dbA, adding a 2nd would add 3 dbA or 40 dBA. The typical 780 Ti is 39 dbA

Average 780 Ti pulls 260 watts, two 670s pulls 324 or about 25% more.

Still if you wanna buy now, the 780 Ti is the best single card you can buy and, outside of the Classified, MSI makes the best one available by along shot. Also kinda nice that it's been $600 every other week on newegg (not this week)

Even so, given the performance level and the specifications, along with what we know about the Maxwell architecture, it is a reasonably safe assumption that this is, in fact, the GTX 870. Of course, note that this is still a rumor, and it is still unconfirmed. Hopefully we will know more in September, when we expect Nvidia to launch new graphics cards.
